Re: [6727] vbox instead of vtop for multi-line entry

    +   * doc/texinfo.tex (\entry): Use a \vbox instead of a \vtop, for 
    +   better column balancing 

If I recall correctly, the point of the \vtop is to make it so the
baseline of the first entry in the left and right columns starts at the
same place.  Perhaps especially when one first entry is multiple lines
and the other first entry is a single line.  

In any case, in this scenario, I think a \strut should be added to the
beginning of the \vbox.  (No harm to do it with \vtop, either.)

    and to stop an index entry overlapping text after the index.

Seems like could add a \strut to the end of the index entry to solve that.
That's probably a good idea anyway.
